Zhou Shaobai saw that several people were laughing, and he was annoyed, and said: "I persuaded you with good words, but in exchange for your ridicule." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info In this case, the Tao is not the same, farewell!"

With that, the horse was about to leave.

Lu Wenqi hurriedly stopped him: "Wait! Engong, you have lived in Xianshan for a long time, and you don't know the world, so you naturally don't know the general trend of the world today." Don't mention anything else for the time being, you must know that the thirteen counties in Hexi, there are now twelve counties occupied by the Qiankun Sect. ”

Zhou Shaobai was taken aback: "It's so serious!"

"Zhou Shaoxia, think about it, if this world is a peaceful and prosperous world, why do the people of Hexi have to rebel with the Qiankun Sect?" Lu Wenqi asked.

Zhou Shaobai said, he went up the mountain to practice at the age of eight, and only came down the mountain a few days ago, where did he know so much, so he had to say: "I don't know, I still hope to make it clear." ”

Lu Wenqi frowned and said: "Since the beginning of the previous year, Hexi has been a major drought for two consecutive years. It was really a thousand miles of red land, there was no harvest, and the people of Li were easy to eat. Zhou Shaoxia, can you think of that tragic situation?"

Upon hearing that such a shocking thing had happened in Hexi, Zhou Shaobai was surprised: "Thousands of miles of red land, Yi Zi eats, doesn't the imperial court send people to provide disaster relief?"

Yuan Xiaochu sneered: "The imperial court? When the victims heard that the grain was coming down, each person had five taels of rations a day, but when they got it, guess what?

Zhou Shaobai was shocked: "Why is this happening?"

"Naturally, it was exploited layer by layer by the court officials in charge. Even so, if they have a stutter, they will not starve to death, and the victims will not take risks and embark on the road of rebellion. But this year, heavy rains fell in Hexi for several days, and the flood broke the embankments, flooded the villages and towns, and turned the world into a Zeguo. Lu Wenqi said sadly, "Pity the people of Hexi, who suffered these unwarranted disasters for no reason, I don't know how many wives have been separated and their families have been ruined." ”

Zhou Shaobai shook his head: "It's too miserable...... But with such a big flood, the imperial court should have a response?"

Lu Wenqi shook his head: "No." ”

"No, how could it be!" Zhou Shaobai obviously didn't believe it.

"The lords and gentlemen of Hexi, for fear that the emperor would know about the serious flood, would lose Wusha's life, so they fabricated the facts, only saying that the flood was not serious, and they had retreated in a few days, and the loss was not big, and the court listened to them, so no one cared. When Lu Wenqi said this, he bowed his head and was silent.

Chen Shijie next to him was already in tears, Zhou Shaobai was puzzled, Yuan Xiaochu whispered: "Senior brother, his parents and brothers in his hometown are all in this flood...... I can't find it. It's a pity that these harmful dog officials have been beheaded by the imperial court, otherwise if we were caught, we would naturally not let them die so cheaply!"

Zhou Shaobai was silent, and Lu Wenqi said again: "The court doesn't care, but the Qiankun Sect is in charge." During the severe drought in the first two years, the Qiankun Sect opened a warehouse to release grain to help the victims, but I don't know how many lives were saved. Nowadays, the flood is serious, in addition to opening warehouses and releasing grain to help the victims, the Qiankun Sect is also dredging rivers, discharging floodwater, opening good halls, sheltering the victims, treating the sick, treating injuries, helping to find family members if they can't find their families, and helping to build walls and houses if their houses are washed away. Zhou Shaoxia, do you say that this Qiankun Sect is a hundred times stronger than the imperial court that doesn't care about anything? Therefore, when the Qiankun Sect decided to start an incident, it raised its arms and shouted, and naturally responded in all directions!"

Zhou Shaobai was silent in thought, and Lu Wenqi said again: "Zhou Shaoxia, those who have won the hearts of the people since ancient times have won the world, and those who have lost the hearts of the people have lost the world. Now the government is sluggish, traitors are in power, and the people of Li are displaced, and the day is precarious. As the saying goes, the country will die, and demons will be born, and the monster in Shenshui Village is an example. You have such an amazing achievement, and you have the heart to save people and love, why don't you join the Qiankun Sect with us, save the people from fire and water, and relieve the people from hanging upside down?"

"This ......" Zhou Shaobai pondered for a long time, and finally spoke, "Brother Lu, I can't agree. Although what you just said is true, this is not a reason for the Qiankun Sect to cause chaos. Since there have been many problems in the imperial court's previous disaster relief efforts, and even provoked popular uprisings, it is natural that in the future it will pay attention to reviving the government and rectifying the rule of officials. ”

Yuan Xiaochu sneered: "Engong likes this court so much, the family should be either rich or expensive, right?"

Zhou Shaobai shook his head: "No, my family is just a small people." I just think that in order to realize its ambition to rule the world, this Qiankun Sect has to coerce so many people to die in war, which is really not a good kind. What's more, if the teacher is unknown and commits chaos, it will definitely not last long. I would like to advise you not to wade into this troubled water. ”

"Is the teacher nameless?" Lu Wenqi shook his head, "Zhou Shaoxia, you have really been on the mountain for too long. ”

He had to say it again, and Yuan Xiaochu next to him said: "Senior brother, forget it, Engong has a saying that is right, the Tao is not the same. Engong has lived in Xianshan for a long time, and he doesn't know the sufferings of the people, no matter how much you say, you can't move him. ”

Lu Wenqi listened to his junior sister's words, shook his head, and arched his hand at Zhou Shaobai: "Zhou Shaoxia, you and I have to hurry today, so don't pass here." But in the future, if Zhou Shaoxia needs help, the five of us will never say much!"

Yuan Xiaochu and the others clasped their fists together: "But by drive, never say much!"

Zhou Shaobai hurriedly returned the salute: "You are too polite, in short, there are many variables here, I hope you will think more about it and make a decision." ”

"The five of us have made up our minds, and Engong doesn't need to say much. Say goodbye!"

"Farewell!"

So the two sides turned their horses' heads and rode towards both ends of the official road.

After walking for a long time, the sun was like fire, Zhou Shaobai was only so hot that he sweated through his clothes, and the fierce horse no longer ran, but just drooped his ears and slowly walked forward.

Luckily, there is Sunshine City ahead.

Qingyang is not a big town, and there are not many people entering the city, although there are also some people queuing up to be inspected by the guards, but the line is not as long as outside Lianzhou City, Zhou Shaobai saw it, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Remembering that those who entered the city needed to dismount and be inspected, Zhou Shaobai turned over and dismounted, leading his horses to line up at the back of the line.

Suddenly, there was a commotion at the city gate in front, Zhou Shaobai stretched out his head to look, and saw a person who looked like a hunter was fighting with several sergeants with a steel knife, and the rest of the people were afraid of affecting themselves, so they screamed and ran away.

I saw that the Orion had a quick hand, slashed a sergeant with a knife, turned around and fled, and a sergeant who looked like a leader shouted: "Don't let the spy of the Qiankun Sect escape!

Zhou Shaobai heard these three words again.

To stop or not to stop? He hesitated.

But when the hunter saw him leading a horse, he ran over and cried out fiercely, "Give me the horse!"

As he spoke, he reached for the reins.
